Condition

Excellent Condition: No dings, scratches, chips or electrical issues. This guitar has had a few modifications, all done by a professional luthier. The guitar itself is in MINT condition, but because of the mods we're listing it as excellent. The mods are as follows: The brass 3-way switch is an aftermarket addition, but the original 5-way knob switch is still included and will be inside the case when the guitar is shipped. The tone pot has been modified to a push/pull coil tap, which allows the pickups to be played as single coil or humbuckers. For additional information or any questions, please don't hesitate to message us.

Please note there is an increased shipping charge on guitars over $3000, to fully insure shipments against loss, damage, or theft.
